this is the second time i've seen, in the lease, us using kind of a landlord advances to front the tenant improvements at an 8% enterrate. being that we're seeing this over and over again i think several of my colleagues has said this is very high if we do choose to participate, and this came up with the department of environment. i was wondering if the department of real estate is thinking in the future, if there are other ways that we can borrow money for these tenant improvements at a lower interest rate. >> well, that's a very good question, and it's timely. because we are seeing this more and more frequently. and the reason we're seeing it more frequently is that the market is changing and there is less of an allowance provided by landlord than there was when the market was softer. so as this market continues to heat up there is less advantage to a tenant. and because of that, then we have to amortize our improvement costs. the challenge we have is each one of these individual deals is have fairly small so we're not talking about a large sum of money which we would normally think of

the visual that he used, the imagery was so profound. he spoke of two ripe full pieces of fruit, plump, and abbey and milton we know we're never plump. that is besides the point. he spoke of the two pieces of fruit at their fullest, at their ripest, at their sweetest, and just as one might have thought that it would never happen these two souls found each other, and would move forward to complete each other, and while the years ahead were not always easy. there were twists and turns and ups and downs. the love that he and abbey shared was truly amazing. not because of bold gestures or declarations on facebook, but the day in and day out devotion that you shared with each other in ways big and small. abbey, you were truly a blessing to milton as milton was to you, and as he was to so many of us, and that is what i will remember most. [applause] >> now, we get to meet novela smith, milton's former campaign manager and friend. >> i would like to thank abbey for asking me to speak today. i'm humbled abbey. thank you very much. most of you do

using redevelopment makes sense. there is enormous public benefits. [speaker not understood].

so, thank you guys for having us. i brought a statistic, a little bit of data that the commission had touched on before. what it states is we have 6 58 cars per thousand residents in the city. it's 14th among american cities. some to note in front of us are boston, san antonio, los angeles, and new york. new york has the lowest ratio with 4 72 cars for a thousand residents. and again, san francisco is at 6 58. it will be interesting to see how this number declines as we invest in municipal transit and how we plan with the new subway systems coming in. i'd love to take the commission on a walking tour. but with only a few minutes of general public comment, i was going to talk to you guys through a tour of the north side of o'farrell street and o'farrell street is about 24 blocks long. and it starts at grant avenue. i'm going to take the first one grant avenue and call it zero o'farrell street and there we host imporio armani. another high retail store, macy's buildings, block to block, one is entirely macy's. across th
